When a storm passes, it leaves behind more than wreckage. It leaves questions.
Questions about the homes we build, the land we trust, and the assumptions we cling to until nature reminds us that nothing is fixed — not even value.
Hurricane Melissa was one of those rare moments when Jamaica paused.
Not simply to count the cost, but to consider the meaning of the cost.
And when the winds settle, the most delicate task begins: understanding which prices truly fell, which held their ground, and which quietly rose while the island was looking the other way.
“Real value does not disappear in a storm. It shifts its location.”
— Dean Jones, Founder, Jamaica Homes
